Don't Question My Fidelity (Autonomy Series #1)

DQMF 6

"You didn't tell me, huh…" Clain still holds grudge from what he saw in my office.

"I told you… we-- we're---" I can't find what words to put, cause even I don't know what we are, are we friends? "Just, it's just not what you are thinking." I said and ended the conversation to go to my place.

We're currently working right now, I have something to report and here he is bugging me around about Hairo and I.

"But why is he in your office?" He asked again.

"Read the new articles, you'll get it." I said and rolled my eyes.

Yes. We're on an article, and it's already all over the media. Gladly, my face was not seen. If ever it is, I don't know what to do. I'm not using my car like Hairo and I talked. Instead I borrowed Athena's car, she's not gonna use it today, just today.

So maybe I'll take a grab or taxi starting from tomorrow. Just the thought of it can make me sigh. 

"You good? Want me to bring you home after work?" Someone texted.

I just finished a live broadcast and felt my phone vibration, and I don't know who texted me.

"Hairo btw, I got your number from your calling card on your table the last time, so don't be shocked." He texted again.

I released a deep sigh after reading his next text.

"Just drop the location, I'll fetch you." 

Oh god, can this man just spare me time alone? He's been around me for a long time.

I don’t wanna mess around with him anymore, not this time when the media has their eyes on him.

“I brought my sister’s car, so don’t worry.” I texted back and went to the parking lot.

I went home after a few talks with Clain before going inside Athena’s car.

I arrived at our house and was surprised by the things that are being brought outside by the maids and helpers. I went out of the car confused.

“What the hell is happening?” I asked while walking towards them.

“Mam Hera, your dad’s wife wants to buy a new one of these items.” A maid explained.

“Wife?” I asked again.

“Yes, I am, Hera.” Oh the devil step mother.

“Oh I thought my mom is here.” I said and walked without looking at her but I intentionally bumped my shoulder to hers.

So she grabbed me tightly.

“Don’t act like a b*tch, have some respect at least.” she whispered.

“Don’t act like my mom, when you are not, have some respect at least.” I said and removed her hands, but she tightened it more.

“Can you just let your father have his life? Don’t be a hindrance to his happiness.” She said looking at me.

“We all know you don’t love him. You just want our money..., my dear step mother...:” I whispered to her. “So don’t you ever cross the line. And bring everything you bring outside back inside OUR house.” I said.

And I swear I can feel her shivering, so I removed her hands on mine, and smirked at her.

I went inside but I was shocked when I saw Athena and she suddenly grabbed her hair.

“Athena!!!” I shouted.

All the maid is stopping her right now.

“What the hell are you doing?!!!” Dad’s girl said.
